The most widely available Nouveau Monde clone and the default Amazon pick. Hits the saffron-rose-oud-cacao spine but is notably smokier and more incense-forward than the LV, which is softer and more caramel-gourmand. Not a 1:1 but the closest mass-market option with strong beast-mode performance. Also sold as Jean Lowe Fraiche after a 2024 rebrand.
